Regulated Climate Control
Our heating ventilation air conditioning (HVAC) systems have full particle filtering and humidity control. The climate within each of our datacentres is maintained according to
ASHRAE Guidelines. This ensures your mission-critical dedicated server and hardware is functioning at its best.
Redundant Power Just in Case
We don't just rely on the local power grid to guarantee around-the-clock power as some providers. Our on-site diesel-powered generators and uninterruptible power systems (UPS) deliver redundant power if a critical incident occurs. This ensures all operations are uninterrupted and your dedicated servers remain online. We regularly test our infrastructure to perform as designed in the event of an emergency. And we back it all up with our 100% Power SLA and 100% Network Uptime SLA.
Serious About Security
We take security very seriously. Our datacentres are locked off and guarded, and can only be accessed by authorized PEER 1 Hosting personnel and our Colocation customers. Monitored closed circuit televisions and 24x7x365 onsite security teams vigilantly protect our datacentres, while military-grade pass card access and biometric finger scan units† are in place to provide even further security.
† Biometric finger scan units not installed in all datacentre locations.
